Got to love the classics

So I dug out a load of stamps that I was given a while ago. They are all wooden and some are dated back to the sixties! I love them, I think that you dont actually  get stamps like this any more, the detail is amazing, Im not sure that it would be possible to get as much detail in the clear stamps you get now-a-days.

 I loved the colouring that this rabbit has, even if i say so myself I just love her pants!


This is how the stamp sheet is sitting now,  still lots to do but got distracted with trying to doodle my own flourises!!

On a plus note we now know whats wrong with my little babies, they both have asthma and have been referred to the hospital and the oldest has got heyfever too :( but at least we  have answers and they can get some medication to help them :) x

So I have been having another play...

As much as I would love to be out in the sun today the baby had us up from 4-6 and then the other LO was up at 7, and both have been grumpy as anything today esp the older one as she has a cold :( To top it off I've got work tonight - firday night behind the bar - could be a long one! Home about 2am i think.
Any how I took advantage of the tiddles having an hour zzzzzz by not having some myself but playing colouring in again!! feel free to comment :D x

First go...

So this is my first practice with the promarkers on the proper card, there are parts that arent blended as well as they could be but i think overall they came out ok :D

They arrived!!

Well they are here!
My beautiful pro markers all 95 of them!

I catalogued which I had coloured in my little chart thingy majig and then agreed to swap shifts so I could work last night and have tonight off.....there was method in my madness!

I realised I had the wrong paper and my little sample play I tried didn't work at all. So that has been corrected I have some new bleed proof paper, with some rymans on the way :-D

And I couldn't organise my storage as mine didn't have the little colour spots on them, then a very bright lady advised me to get some sticky dots and colour those in and stick them to the bottom so that's the first thing os my to do list today :-)

I'll catch up soon :-) x

Hey all

So....

I have never started a blog before and haven't really got a clue what I am doing so bear with me....

What am I up to?

Well I have my two little girls to look after with my third due in August - I will have 3 under 2 and half then!! But I still find time to do my paper crafting and research into other peoples ideas.

I am due to receive a large collection of promarkers tomorrow....VERY excited!! Never used them before but I cant wait so I guess I'll speak to you all after the postie has been :D
